For NAPE members working in the Nebraska State College System, your elected negotiating team has reached a tentative contract agreement. Ratification votes are scheduled on all three campuses January 7-10. Both members and non-members may attend the meetings, however, only NAPE members have the right to vote to accept or reject the tentative agreement.

The NAPE Board of Directors has a vacancy for a Member-at-Large position. The Board plans to fill the vacancy at its meeting on February 23, 2019. Any NAPE member who has had active membership status since February 24, 2018 is eligible to be appointed. The member appointed will serve until the end of the unexpired term (August 2019), at which point they can run for re-election if they choose. Board meetings are held quarterly. For more information or if you are interested, please contact the NAPE office.

NAPE is Growing - Become a Steward - Help lead our future!

NAPE has welcomed 76 new members in the past two months! Our elected leaders have committed to an aggressive plan to grow, evolve, and better serve our members. A new era is upon us at NAPE!

Would you like to help us grow? Would you like to be a leader? Consider becoming a NAPE steward! Steward training classes are being held in Beatrice (January 14), Norfolk (January 15), and Lincoln (January 31). More sessions will be added across the state in the coming months. Training takes just 3 hours, and you'll receive all the tools you need to be a great worksite leader.

Reason for becoming a steward: Years ago, Adam saw significant issues developing regarding annual leave at the call centers. He wanted to be part of the solution, so he stepped up to become a steward!

Favorite part of being a steward: Adam loves to advocate for our members by tracking legislation and candidates that will better the lives of state employees. Adam knows that political action is important!
